Open SP Bug? - lethandis - 02-23-2010
Whenever I try to create an OSP character, I am stuck at level 1, like I am in the story mode, despite the fact that story mode is disabled. Anyone know a fix for this? Removing and reinstalling didn't seem to change anything.
Open SP Bug? - 11of10 - 02-23-2010
When starting the mod, have you enabled the increased money in Open SP?
If so, it could be just that the game needs to refresh your status. Just go buy something, or sell something, and it should do it.

I believe so.
However, I bought a new ship (Rhino can be bought at level 1), guns, shields, commodities, even ran a couple missions, still says current level 1 next level max level.

It sounds to me like a content.dll issue. The file that comes with Discovery 4.85 should suffice in allowing for Open SP. However there was a bug with FLMM in which the file might be deleted when activating the Open SP feature, although I don't know if it is present in the latest version of FLMM or if it has been fixed.
Navigate to the DLL\BIN directory under your Freelancer installation and take a look at the properties of the file and its version tab (or check the numbers beneath the file name in explorer). Discovery comes with version 1.0.1254.11 and other mods, including Open SP, might come with version 1.0.1223.11.
I don't think that the original file which Freelancer is shipped with allows for Open SP thus if it is present then you will need to change it for one of the above two. I actually didn't think 1254 allowed for it, but a quick test shows that it does work for me (that is, I started at level 5 and buying a few commodities took me to level 6).
To ensure compatibility with Discovery, don't bother with version 1223 and instead acquire 1254. You may need to download Discovery to acquire this file or have somebody email it to you (zipped up it's only ~550kb) as it doesn't appear to be available for download. If needs be, you can get 1223 from here.
IMPORTANT:
- Be sure to keep a backup of version 1254 at all time as this is your primary file.
- To avoid any incompatibilities ensure that version 1254 is present before connecting online.
- Save games using one version will not be compatible with another version, Freelancer will not even load unless incompatible save games are moved from the save directory. Save games can be found here...
